Upgrade Your Steez: Swag of the Week

Snapbacks Are Back

In honor of Throwback Thursday this weeks steez upgrade is also a throwback; snapback hats. For a while there was an "underground movement" if you want to call it that of bros straying away from the 59 Fifty fitted hats and wearing vintage snap back hats made from a company called The Game. The only problem for the unlucky few that failed to save their Game hats from when they were little was that retro looking snapback were nearly impossible to find. Ebay had a bunch of these snapbacks, but the only way your were getting one was if if were willing to shell out some serious cash for a hat that was really worth 20 bucks. If I learned anything from the few Economic classes I attended freshman year was that were there is a demand there will be a supply and after some time without a supply companies like Zephyr, New Era, and Mitchell and Ness finally answered the demand with a whole new line of vintage looking snapbacks. After about 15 minutes of browsing different sites here are a collection of the top hats I found. Enjoy.

NFL Snapbacks

NBA Snapbacks

(This Suns hat is actually the real deal when it comes to being vintage. You can find hats like this on amazon.com)


NHL Snapbacks
(Another amazon find)

MLB Snapbacks
NCAA Snapbacks

MISC. Snapbacks

My top pick overall is the Oakland Raiders Mitchell and Ness, but why pick one?
